The CEOs of OpenAI, Nvidia, and Google are in agreement: AI is about to change work in ways most people aren't prepared for. Sam Altman: Seize the arbitrage gap. In a recent podcast, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman discussed how GPT-5.2 can match or beat expert-level humans on roughly 71% of knowledge work tasks. But he also sees a major gap between what AI can do and what people are actually using it for — creating a serious arbitrage opportunity for early adopters willing to integrate it into their workflows now.

OpenAI has rolled out an app directory built directly into ChatGPT on iOS, Android, and web. Apps are grouped into Feature, Lifestyle, and Productivity, and connect popular services such as Dropbox, Spotify, and Apple Music. Once authorized, apps can be called with an @ mention inside chats to pull files, manage playlists, or plan shopping. OpenAI opened submissions for developers, sharing guidelines, examples, a UI kit, and a quickstart. Internal payments are still under review, with privacy rules required.

OpenAI launches GPT Image 1.5, its new flagship image generator built into ChatGPT. The model renders images up to four times faster and is available to all users today. It obeys instructions more precisely, enabling believable photo edits like clothing and hairstyle try-ons while preserving original essence. A new Images sidebar offers preset filters and trending prompts to guide creation. OpenAI frames the release as a shift from gimmicky art to enterprise-ready visual production, aiming to satisfy investor pressure for revenue. The upgrade lands amid intensifying rivalry with other labs following Google’s viral Nano Banana.

OpenAI just rolled out its group chat feature across all subscription tiers after an initial test period, allowing up to 20 users to simultaneously collaborate with each other and with ChatGPT in the same thread. The details: Shared chats are accessed through invite links, with ChatGPT gauging conversation flow and interjecting when appropriate or directly mentioned. Rate limits apply to AI responses rather than human messages, with the usage counting against the user who triggered the model reply. Privacy features isolate group sessions from individual memory, with ChatGPT not retaining info from collaborative threads or applying personal context. The feature initially launched in four Asia-Pacific markets last week for a test trial and is now expanding to Free, Go, Plus, and Pro tiers. Why it matters: Group projects just got a powerful new collaboration tool for the AI age. It might take some time to get the flow of using ChatGPT alongside friends or coworkers, but in a short time, we’ll likely see (and welcome) contributions from models in collaborative efforts as naturally as any other human participants.

In this tutorial, you will learn how to record and summarize meetings directly in the ChatGPT desktop app without third-party tools like Fireflies or Otter — perfect for companies that block external recording tools or privacy-sensitive teams. Step-by-step: Download the ChatGPT desktop app and log in with a Plus, Pro, Business, or Enterprise account (free accounts don't have full access) Click the "Record" button during your meeting, lecture, or session, and a recording panel appears and runs quietly in the background (always ask permission before recording others) Click "Stop" when finished, then send the recording to ChatGPT for a structured breakdown including summary, key points, action items, and suggested follow-ups Chat with your transcript by asking follow-ups like "Rewrite the summary in bullets for a Slack update" or "Highlight any risks or unanswered questions" Our Take: With ChatGPT record, you get the convenience of tools like Fireflies/Otter without having to invite an awkward bot into every Zoom call.

ChatGPT will let people collaborate together in shared conversations. Key Points: New group chats let friends, family, and coworkers work with ChatGPT in one space. ChatGPT decides when to respond and can react with emojis, images, and shared context. The pilot launches in four regions across Free, Go, Plus, and Pro plans. Details: OpenAI is rolling out group chats that let users collaborate with each other and ChatGPT in the same conversation. People can plan trips, work on shared ideas, or settle debates while ChatGPT follows along and helps when needed. Anyone can join through a link, and chats remain separate from private conversations. The pilot starts in Japan, New Zealand, South Korea, and Taiwan. Why It Matters: Group chats turn ChatGPT into more than a solo brainstorming buddy: it starts to look like a shared workspace that sits on top of your existing group chats. You can co-write docs, plan trips, or debate ideas while everyone sees the same suggestions, summaries, and follow-ups in one place, instead of forwarding screenshots or pasting replies from separate chats. For teams, classrooms, and friend groups, this nudges AI closer to how people actually make decisions together day to day.

For months, extremely personal and sensitive ChatGPT conversations have been leaking into an unexpected destination: Google Search Console (GSC), a tool that developers typically use to monitor search traffic, not lurk private chats.
